SynFlex Group is pleased to announce that its China facility has successfully achieved certification to the IATF 16949:2016 and ISO 9001:2015 standards during the 2023 surveillance audit.

The involvement of Chinese employees in questioning, monitoring, evaluating, and optimizing the Quality Management (QM) system process is commendable. This commitment to continuous improvement not only ensures compliance with industry standards but also enhances customer satisfaction. The emphasis on optimizing system and process quality reflects SynFlex's responsiveness to evolving customer needs and the dynamic nature of the automotive industry.

This certification not only attests to SynFlex's adherence to industry standards but is also a testament to the efficiency and effectiveness of its operations.

The standard for QM systems in the automotive industry IATF 16949:2016 defines the industry-specific requirements for series and spare parts production based on DIN EN ISO 9001:2015.

The blood donation service celebrates its premiere at the SynFlex Group in Blomberg

Together with her team of three, Ms. Ledig (DRK-Blutspendedienst West) regularly prepares the large blood donation vehicle. Today, 50 blood donations are planned, to be given by employees working in shifts.

"As a family business, we are committed to the region and to our fellow man. It's great that so many of our employees have accepted the invitation to donate blood," says Dr. Henning Martens, Director Human Resources & Legal Affairs at SynFlex Elektro GmbH.

Employees from our sister company SHWire (Schwering & Hasse Elektrodraht GmbH) also came to donate. For them, as for the other colleagues who come to donate at a specific time, the first step is a preliminary consultation with the doctor. The doctor checks whether they are suitable donors and then directs them to the mobile unit. Five people can donate at the same time. About half a litre of blood is taken from each person. They then go to the rear VIP area to acclimatise - and then the company provides free refreshments to replenish their fluids.

Ms. Ledig recommends that donors drink plenty of fluids and eat well before giving blood. "Two cups of coffee are not enough, otherwise the blood is much thicker and it is harder to take," says Ms. Ledig. The blood donation service travels almost every day, at least three times a week.

All the blood donors from the SynFlex Group came through the day well, and Ms. Ledig is also satisfied with the result: "We will gladly come again."

Summer fair 2023

On 1 September, we held a summer fair for all employees on our headquater in Blomberg.

Despite the rather autumnal weather outlook, the funfair was accompanied by dry weather and pleasant temperatures - a real stroke of luck!
With a variety of tasty treats, exciting games like throwing cans and darts, exciting horse races and of course the indispensable bull riding, the funfair was a real highlight. The grounds were full of employees who were in the best of moods and enjoyed the festival to the fullest.

Our Managing Director, Mr Karsch, opened the bull-riding very skilfully. After the spell was broken, there was a lot of competition among the colleagues.

The party went on until the early hours of the morning - undoubtedly a great success!
